worth reading. I'm a bit too intoxicated to comment.  But probably worth bringing to attention.  The gist is that Park won't fix what's wrong with the Twins.  Thoughts?

He lost me when he called Daniel Ortiz an impact prospect.

 

 

I've had too much to drink to recognize the difference between David and Daniel when I'm skimming an article   I'll take him for what was meant other than what was said

lol Forbes. Yes, one player won't fix the Twins (or most teams). I'm still on the fence with the move (though I agree there is very little downside) but if he can mash, he goes a long way in helping fix the Twins.

Wow a Forbes article about the Twins and I don't think the name Pohlad was dropped once.

 

The article mostly seemed to be about batting average and HR, so it's hard to see this as an in depth piece. I do agree too though that the Twins need to get much better at getting on base. Maybe super prospect Daniel Ortiz will help with that?

no no no no no.

 

Not "Forbes".  That is like getting a STrib blog commenter quote and call it "Strib"

 

Forbes has "contributors" (like this here site has "blogs".,)

Here  are the contributions of the young gentleman who wrote the linked piece.  As you can tell, he is a sports' generalist. 

 

Grain of salt

 

 

i was really looking forward to some of those awesome bat flips... Turns out Park quit doing them to prepare for MLB.. dumb

Self-summary of this guy's writing repertoire:

 

"I write for a small website Campus Sports and cover everything from the upcoming NBA Draft to the Auburn Tigers softball team having a good luck fish in their dugout!"

 

I guess that Hemingway and Steinbeck were no longer available. (or alive)

Not sure about Hemingway, but Terry Steinbach is pretty available...

Forbes has "contributors" (like this here site has "blogs".,)

This explains the lack of a copy editor to catch "he is not the universal cure for what ills[sic] the team".

 

How many individual signings *are* a universal cure, anyway?

 

Terrible article from just about any angle. I feel I now know less about my team than when I started to read it.

 

_{^{// and the first TD poster to say "is it even possible for you to know less"...}}

Yeah, it's not a good article.

Well.... Guess this proves I'll click on any link I see on Twins Daily.
